5.0 out of 5 stars 4x doesn't get much better, April 22, 2007
By Terrence Walsh (Strongsville, OH USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
There is a lot to like about this turn based space strategy game. It is clearly the successor to the type of gameplay popularized by the first two Master of Orion titles back in the 90's.

The graphics are a nice update and there are limitless opportunities to customize the look and feel of the game along with custom starship, race and opponent construction.

You will find yourself saying "just a few more minutes" at 2AM and wondering how the heck the sun came up so fast, so be forewarned!

If you liked Master of Orion 2 and Civ3 but weren't so impressed with their successors (like me) I think you will like this game the most.

5.0 out of 5 stars Addictive, March 11, 2007
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
This game is highly addictive, beware! There are many ways to play (strategies to use), tons of map setup options, the ship customization is simple yet very flexible, and the graphics and menus are streamlined and pretty. Initial learning curve may be moderate for some but with even a short websearch you will find an easy read to help you grasp the few not-so-obvious points in the game. After playing a couple times the play will come naturally and you will have a hard time tearing yourself away from the game. Additionally, the product support, update system, and overall care the developers have put and continue to place in this game is top-notch in the industry. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing support for an amazing game, January 20, 2008
By Chamith Fonseka (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
If you loved Master of Orion II, Civilization II and other games of this genre, you were probably disappointed in the way the sequels progressed. Personally, Master of Orion III let me down the most, as it was just not a a very well designed 4x game. When I bought this on a whim on vacation in Montréal, I wasn't expecting much better.

I am happy to say, however, I was completely wrong. To begin with, this game is FUN. It is similar in many ways to Master of Orion II, only with an detailed 3-d map, a strong tech tree, a super-intelligent AI and a huge amount of customization options. The best part, however, in my opinion is the support that Stardock Games gives this product. As of this writing, a second expansion pack, Twilight of the Arnor, has come out. And that was after the team had worked on eight major patches to the game, all of which not only fixed bugs but added new features. The community is great too, and the mods that are available on the Stardock site will keep this game going for many, many hours after you think you've seen it all.

I would recommend this game to anyone looking for that 4x game that never came after Master of Orion II. You won't be disappointed
